Autonomous Surveillance Drone

Autonomous Surveillance Drone

We can all imagine the advantages of a drone as a surveillance tool. A drone is fast 'on site', has instantly a large overview and offers camera surveillance where the subsurface does not matter whether it is water or vegetation. At the same time an Autonomous Surveillance Drone has a deterrent effect. During the operational deployment of a regular drone a pilot and a spotter have to be on site and this makes the deployment of a regular drone not always efficient for surveillance.

Since 1 January 2021 it is possible to fly a drone BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line Of Sight) in the Netherlands and thus make use of an autonomous surveillance drone. As of this date, Bavak supplies the SKEYETECH drone as a solution.

Autonomous Surveillance Drone

When a large perimeter needs to be secured, a CCTV system is often an integral part of it. This is as a CCTV system was one of the best solutions for observing a large area. Until now.

Autonomous Surveillance Drone - Eyes in the sky

Drone technology has made a significant step forward in recent years and it is now possible to fly an 'autonomous' drone to observe a perimeter. The possibilities of using a drone to approach the visual security are of great importance. For example, the drone can travel a pre-programmed path so that the same route is flown continuously and an live image is projected in the control room, whilst being recorded as well. And the drone can also be used in case of incidents, either automatically or by request. By doing so you will have immediate ‘eyes in the sky’.

Autonomous Surveillance Drone - Fast deployment

The system can be deployed quickly in case of calamities. In case of an alarm, a drone is on site within 3 minutes on a site of 300ha. The advantages of using a drone are obvious. Because the drone is not limited to a fixed location to work from, a drone can be much more flexible than a stationary camera system. As a result, the drone can easily capture more / other images. For example, in case there is a lot of smoke which a camera could limit, a drone can choose a different camera position. Or when a camera does not reach a certain angle, the drone can capture it by flying into the exact position. The drone can either be (automatically) activated 24/7, or respond to an alarm. As an extra plus, the drone has a more deterrent effect to unwanted persons than a regular camera system because of the sound of its propellors.

Autonomous Surveillance Drone - SKEYETECH E2

The used drone has been specially developed for this surveillance task by Azur and that can be seen from the specifications. To start with, the drone has eight rotor blades instead of just four. This has been chosen for safety, should one of the rotor blades fail for whatever reason then the drone can still fly safely. In addition, the drone is equipped with a parachute so that should a crash occur, the impact is minimal. These two additional safety measures are not found in the other solutions and indicate that nothing is left to chance by Azur.

SKEYETECH E2 has a configurable charge time: fast charging for intensive use (20+ missions per day), or slower charging and maximum life for less frequent use. Finally, for crisis management situations requiring longer flight times, it is now possible to hot swap SKEYETECH E2 batteries, allowing the drone to fly longer.

The SKEYETECH E2 is designed as a multi-application platform that can provide all kinds of aerial data through different payloads (video, gas recording, photogrammetric data, etc.) Thus, the drone can be used for security (civil protection) and environmental protection (gas collection, detection of various contaminants, radioactivity protection in the nuclear industry). The data obtained is accurately processed using artificial intelligence.

Autonomous operation and if necessary flight-controlled from the control room

The drone can do a pre-programmed surveillance completely autonomously, but it can also be flight-controlled from the control room. In short, we are talking about an 'autonomous' security camera in the air that immediately delivers the right images in any circumstance. Fast, accurate and safe and the images directly in the control room. Today, the logical evolution of the security industry begins with a eyes in the sky.
